This is not a bug

select says "yes there is room inm the socket buffer"
however datagram protocols do not store anythign in the outgoing socket
buffer, but, instead hand the packets directly to the driver for the
NIC.

when the NIC fils up it returns ENOBUFS

use sleep(0.01) between calls to socket.send
